wow the sun !!!

has anybody been doing any solar viewing !!!!!! the past week has been some of the best i've seen,the flares have been spewing out all around the limb in some most wonderful shapes and sizes and they change by the hour..and there's been some nice sunspots in the centre of the sun today it looked like a large crater something i'd never seen before there must be a very active region there one could only imagine the flare coming of it shame it's pointed right at us...
hope you people with h/a scopes are using them the sun seems to have come alive
